A note on Basic

If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Basic. Basic is about 1,527 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area.

Nearby places include East Enterprise, Roy and West Enterprise.

Engine and fuel

It is powered by the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid, with all-wheel drive. It is a plug-in hybrid: it runs on electricity for a short distance, then on gas like a regular hybrid. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

Expect about 26 litres for every 300 km, going by its 8.8 L/100 km combined rating. It can cover about 644 km on electricity before switching to gas. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $13.64 at our price setting.

Good uses for the Q5

It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

What the Q5 is like

As a compact SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier. At 4.68 m long, it is mid-size. It fits most condo and driveway spots.

Rent this car

If you want this one, say so in the request; we confirm before you pay. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now.

Rules for renters

If you are 18 or over and hold an Ontario G2 or G licence, you can rent. There is no maximum age. Drivers under 26 pay a young driver fee each day. You show your original licence and your card when we hand you the keys.

Before pickup, choose how damage to the car is handled: your auto policy (OPCF 27), your credit card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. A deposit is held before each rental; the amount is on the car's page. A quick licence and identity check happens before we confirm any booking.

The booking steps

Choose the car and your times, then send a request. A request does not hold the car, and it costs nothing. Then we send an offer. The offer shows the price before 13% HST and the deposit. Only an approved, paid offer books the car.

The car pages show each car's rates, deposit and kilometres included. From one day to 365, a single booking covers it. Plan for at least 2 hours between sending the request and picking up the car.
